Celebrate Earth Day!! (No Matter Where You Live) #EarthDay

As you may have noticed many people around the country are gearing up for the annual event on April 22nd called Earth Day. There are many many events going on to help us celebrate our big blue sphere that you can easily participate in. And even if you can't attend an event there are easy ways to celebrate Earth Day without even living your home.

Obviously the first thing I am going to mention is our video with the @RainforestSite. You can help save our rainforests just by going to their site and clicking on the link. Watch our newest video here and then go to The Rainforest Site and
